Chapter 97

The Immortal Lord of Cretaceous is a Teng Snake spirit beast that was born from the gathering of spiritual energy from heaven and earth in the underworld. At the Gate of Jiuyuan, he was enlightened by the elusive Heart of the Universe Jia Feng and became the gatekeeper of the Gate of Jiuyuan, always on guard against monsters from breaking out.

He didn't know how many years he had been standing quietly in front of the gate of Jiuyuan. In the endless days that seemed to be wasting away, the lonely man was like a stone gatekeeper, and he encountered an intruder without any malicious intentions.

The Gate of Jiuyuan separates evil spirits and monsters from the underworld, but many monsters inside the gate are dissatisfied with this status quo, and monsters often try to break out of the gate and be killed by Baike.

But this time, the intruder did not have any malicious intentions.

The original form of the Cretaceous Immortal King is Teng Snake. As the descendant of an ancient mythical beast, he can clearly sense the good and evil emotions of all things, but the evil ghost in front of him did not give him such a feeling.

In fact, if it weren't for the strong black and blue ghost aura on his body, the uninvited guy in front of him really didn't look like a monster that grew randomly in the Jiuyuan.

Jiuyou Jun was just born at that time. He heard in Jiuyuan that Cretaceous Immortal Jun had been guarding the gate of Jiuyuan for a thousand years and his heart was as hard as a rock, so he became curious.

Even someone as weird as him couldn't maintain a stable mental state and exist well without having fun. Jiuyou Jun couldn't imagine that there was such a person in the world who could remain the same for thousands of years and stand like a statue for thousands of years.

However, after meeting the Immortal Lord Cretaceous, Lord Jiuyou had even more doubts in his heart.

"My Lord, you are so beautiful, why do you have to act like someone owes you hundreds of taels of silver every day?"

Jiuyou asked openly, as if he was doing some research rather than harassing the Immortal Lord who was guarding the gate.

"Go back! The evil and demons are not allowed to step out of the Nine Abyss."

The Cretaceous Immortal King closed his eyes, as if he was thinking of turning a blind eye and no longer paying any attention to the other party.

The monsters in Jiuyuan have basically lost their minds, and the madness of killing and fighting is filled in their hearts. This is why this door needs a guardian.

Jia Feng, the Heart of the Universe, had been anxious about this for several centuries. Finally, during a routine inspection of the underworld, he met the Cretaceous Immortal King, who was born out of thin air and had close ties with the Nine Abyss Gate.

Jia Feng felt the essence of the birth of the little guy in front of him. In a sense, he could be regarded as the humanoid terminal created for himself by the Gate of Nine Abysses, so he spoke and gave the Cretaceous Immortal a choice.

"Little guy, do you want to leave here, or guard the door?"

The newly born little guy instinctively had a strong sense of closeness to the Gate of Jiuyuan, but he hesitated for a moment before finally choosing to guard the gate.

"Have you really thought about it?"

At that time, Jia Feng's taste was not as bad as it is now, and his clothes were normal, even quite extraordinary. Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan, who were watching the movie in an immersed way, thought that although Jia Feng, a liar at first glance, actually had such a unique identity as the Heart of the World, they no longer had the extra mood to immerse themselves in surprise.

They must piece together the history of the past through these blessed memories, and then find a way to completely solve the seal of the underworld and save everyone from suffering.

"I've thought about it."

The story around him continued, the little Cretaceous Immortal replied in a crisp voice.

"Besides... I want to help you. Aren't many people troubled by this door? If I help, no one will be troubled anymore."

Huanshizhixin was stunned, and a complex feeling of deceiving and taking advantage of a child spread in his heart, causing a slight pain.

"...Children have the right to regret. If one day you don't want to guard this immovable door anymore, then...tell me."

Jia Feng sighed, and his figure disappeared along with the surrounding environment.

At that time, Huanshizhixin had not expected that this little Teng Snake could actually hold on for so long, for such a long time, guarding for a thousand years.

For thousands of years, he performed his duties diligently and killed many demons that wanted to escape from his restrictions. It was not until the strange Jiuyou, born in the Jiuyuan, ignored his indifference and entangled him day and night that the white chalk fairy king had a little more color.

At least the Cretaceous Immortal King, who has always only guarded the gate, will now set his sights on places other than the Nine Abyss Gate.

That was what Lord Yan, who was considered a collaborator of Lord Cretaceous, thought at the time.

It's a good thing.

Immortal Lord Cretaceous really doesn't know how to deal with people with Lord Jiuyou's personality, just like Gu Qingming sometimes doesn't know how to deal with Chu Zhongyuan.

After that meeting, Jiuyou Jun would chirp around Cretaceous Jun every day like a sparrow. When Cretaceous Jun stood guard like a statue, any strange ghost passing by could see a black and blue boy bringing up one topic, then changing the topic, pulling Cretaceous Jun's long hair, then playing with his hat.

But the Cretaceous Immortal King could do nothing about him.

After all, his duty was to guard the Gate of Jiuyuan. Lord Jiuyou had no ill intentions and had no intention of breaking out of the Gate of Jiuyuan, so he had no way of stopping the other party from doing anything.

As time passed, the Cretaceous Immortal King almost regarded Jiuyou King as an objective object that existed around him at all times, just like the sea of ​​red spider lilies.

Maybe, this is the friend that Yan Jun mentioned?

The Immortal Lord Cretaceous could not distinguish the emotions of humans, but he could clearly feel that he might be happy when he was with Lord Jiuyou.

The Gate of Jiuyuan is not silent. Various problems often arise in his mind, so Jia Feng, the Heart of the World, urgently needs to find a gatekeeper.

After once again wiping out the tide of resentful souls that wanted to escape from Jiuyuan, Immortal Lord Cretaceous entered the Gate of Jiuyuan for the first time. He sat down in a sea of ​​imitation red spider lilies specially arranged by Lord Jiuyou inside the gate, and began to think about what the heavy thing that was becoming increasingly obvious in his mind was.

He thought to himself during the double broadcast of Jiuyou and Yanjun.

Maybe it's time for me to get out and about.

"My real body won't go out. After all, I can't let you bend the law for personal gain and make things difficult for me. But I'm glad that you want to go and relax. Maybe... you can take this with you? At least I can accompany you through this clone."

Lord Jiuyou handed a doll made of his own ghost energy to Lord Baike, who was silent for a moment and said yes solemnly.

So, the Cretaceous Immortal embarked on a short journey of freedom, and in a remote village, he rescued a small mysterious creature, a wolf cub.

"That must be the wolf figure leaning over Gamu."

Gu Qingming looked at the wolf cub's familiar shape and fur color, feeling a little emotional.

"Time is really a knife that carves things at random. If I hadn't known about their past, I would have found it difficult to connect the majestic wolf king with this little wolf cub."

"So, let's just grab what we can grab."

Chu Zhongyuan also seemed to be shocked by the stories lost in the old history, and he was more sentimental than usual.

A ghostly puppet, an immortal king, and a mysterious creature that can talk. This strange combination doesn't seem to go together at all, but there is a certain strange harmony.

Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan watched helplessly as the two men and the wolf created countless brilliant achievements and jokes, leaving a deep impression in the supernatural world at that time.

But happiness is always short-lived, and accidents are the norm in this mysterious world.

Too much resentment accumulated in the depths of the Nine Abyss. Finally, the malice of mankind and the anger of the monsters that had been imprisoned for many years merged together, and an unprecedentedly powerful seventh-level mystery was born from the depths of the Nine Abyss Gate.

At that time, the Cretaceous Immortal King had just returned from his travels, and his interactions with humans made him realize more beautiful things, but it was also those things that strengthened his determination to come back and continue guarding the gate.

"I have realized how vast the universe is."

Jia Feng once tried to test the thoughts of Immortal Lord Baihe. Baihe had been guarding the Gate of Jiuyuan for a thousand years and finally had a chance to take a break. He did not want to see his child's life completely dominated by that gate.

"I still pity the green grass and trees."

The Cretaceous Immortal shook his head and did not follow Jia Feng's suggestion to refute him. Instead, he continued to take on the job of guarding the gate.

Although the human world is good, the Gate of Nine Abysses is his final destination.

For a thousand years since his birth, he has been standing in front of the gate of Jiuyuan, almost making himself a monument.

Guarding the Gate of Jiuyuan is no longer a responsibility imposed on him, but an integral part of his life.

Besides, he is not alone.

The Cretaceous Immortal felt a little emotional when he thought about his friend who, although he had lost his freedom and became a strange person, was still able to maintain his normal consciousness and find various ways to make him happy every day.

As long as there are people accompanying you, even if it is the underworld, it is not an exaggeration to call it home, right?

The Cretaceous Immortal made a promise with the friends he made in the human world that they would get together often when they had time, but he never expected that he would never have the chance to meet their old friends again.

The collective of resentment and negative consciousness born from the deepest part of Jiuyuan is very capable of misleading people. It controls most of the weirdness in Jiuyuan and launched a large-scale attack in front of the gate of Jiuyuan.

In the past, the Cretaceous Immortal King could block the attack alone, but this time the Cretaceous Immortal King was entangled by the Chi, and it took the Nine Nether King, the Hell King, and the Ghost Messenger all working together to finally block the gap.

But the reality cannot be changed. The Gate of Nine Abysses was damaged, and countless monsters escaped from the cracks and scattered to the underworld. From then on, the century-long finishing work exhausted all the energy of the underworld and CPA. In order to stop the Gate of Nine Abyss and the monsters, the Immortal Lord of Cretaceous and the Lord of Nine Nether sacrificed their lives and stopped the largest-scale weird tide.

The Cretaceous Immortal King died together with Chi, one of the rare seventh-level mysteries in history, leaving only his remnant soul. He handed over the damaged Snow Bell, a water-controlling object that could reopen the Nine Abyss Secret Realm, to his old friend Wolf Shadow.

Afterwards, it dissipated together with Lord Jiuyou's soul into the most pure and spotless place.

Chu Zhongyuan stared at the two people's tightly clasped hands, and felt an inexplicable sadness from them.

It was clear that they had a relationship that was more than close friends, but in the end, before they could even open their mouths, they all died in the Nine Abyss Gate Rebellion.

But they were not the only two who died in that disaster.

During that turmoil, there were the ghost messengers from the underworld who fought one after another, the predecessor members of CPA on the ground, and the rebel army that assembled themselves to wipe out the wronged souls and monsters... Each of these people was also a Cretaceous Immortal King.
